Proverbs 11:24-26
English Standard Version
24 (A)One gives (B)freely, yet grows all the richer;
another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.
25 (C)Whoever brings blessing (D)will be enriched,
and (E)one who waters will himself be watered.
26 (F)The people curse him who holds back grain,
but (G)a blessing is on the head of him who (H)sells it.
Proverbs 11:24-26
International Standard Version
24 Those who give freely gain even more;
others hold back what they owe, becoming even poorer.
25 A generous person will prosper,
and anyone who gives water will receive a flood in return.
26 People will curse whoever withholds grain,
but blessing will come to whoever is selling.
